Marvel Fans Demanding To Know Where Korg Is After Those Avengers: Endgame Posters

Yesterday, Marvel released a ton of new Avengers: Endgame character posters that exhibited an array of heroes expected to feature in next month’s release, while also remembering some of the figures who’ve passed away in recent MCU history. We even received confirmation that Valkyrie will feature in the Avengers: Infinity Warsequel, but to the disappointment of some fans, one of Tessa Thompson’s most beloved Thor: Ragnarok co-stars was nowhere to be seen.

Last year’s Infinity War had by far the highest body count of any Marvel movie to date, but one character whose fate was left up in the air was Taika Waititi’s Korg. By the time the film opened, the soft-spoken warrior had either escaped Thanos’ attack on Thor’s ship or been among the Mad Titan’s victims, and we’ve yet to find out which. So when it became clear that Korg wasn’t getting his own Endgame poster, fans took to Twitter call Marvel out:

In the audio commentary track for the Infinity War home release, co-writer Christopher Markus instructed fans to “pray for Korg,” though stopped short of confirming whether he lived or died. Since then, there’s been a little speculation that Waititi’s character might make a comeback, but not much in the way of evidence.

Still, Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige mentioned last year that they’re considering a spinoff project for Korg and his friend Miek. On top of that, it’s already been pretty much confirmed that a whole load of dead Marvel characters will somehow appear inAvengers: Endgame, so we certainly wouldn’t give up on Korg just yet. Either way, we’ll find out who’s in attendance for the Phase 3 finale when the film hits theaters on April 26th.
